Wxy**2
What do ** mean here?
"to the power of", so your code squares the value of "Wxy", or "Wxy *
Wxy"

With respect to finding this out for yourself, if you go the Python docs:
https://docs.python.org/3/
and follow the "index" link at the top right:
https://docs.python.org/3/genindex.html
and in that page, follow the "Symbols" link:
https://docs.python.org/3/genindex-Symbols.html
you will find "**" there, along with a lot of other operator and syntax stuff.

Swiftkey, [...] teaches one the lamentable lesson that most
English speakers start most sentences, phrases and sub-clauses
with 'I'. One does not use the word often oneself and it therefore
strikes one as a little unfair that one's texts and emails so often
end up littered with implications of egocentricity. - Stephen Fry
